I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE HAS USED HOPPES 9 SILICONE CLOTHS TO CLEAN AND COAT YOUR BLADES. THE PACKAGING SAYS IT IS FOR GUNS AND REELS.

yeah, they work real good for drying off after you get out of the shower too in case all your knives are wiped down already, recycle----save the environment

I haven't used the Hoppes brand but I do regularly use a silicone cloth to wipe my knives after handling. I kind of alternate between a chamois and a silicone cloth.

I spoke with an engineer at Case on a subject related to rust, carbon pops and spiders on high carbon blades and he suggested silicone wipes. I also use a silicone wax after I clean them up and most times fingerprints don't show but when they do I wipe with chamois skin.
